For Commissioner Matter of Interest

Jacob Schmachtenberger is before
the people of Stark County for re-elect-
ion to the office of County Commission
Yer. He has been a faithful officer, and
has guarded well the interests of the
people while economically administer
ing their affairs. He commenced his
first term on the 1st of Dec, 1884, at
which time the bridge and road indebt-
edness of the County was as follows:-

Schmachtenberger has been Commits

half. Had it not been for several ex-
pensive bridges which had given way
and had to be rebuilt within the past
two years, this showing would have
been from ten to twelve thousand dol
lars better. The Bridge fund is the on
ly County fund absolutely under the
control of the County Commissioners,
but other funds show equal care and
attention to the interests of the tax
payers of Stark County, on the part of
Mr.. Schmachtenberger and his col
leagues. But what contrast between
the economical administration of our
County affairs, as shown above, and
that of the State administration under |
J. B. Foraker and his Republican col
leagues, who have so extrayagantly
used the public money and so increased
the State debt, that he proposes to in
crease the burdens of the people by an
additional and heavy increase upon
valuation of farms and other real prop
erty to minister to Republican extrav-

that Governor Foraker has been utter

Mr.. Powell had not paid his taxes, Hon.
S. K. Donavin, of Delaware, a personal

"Mr. Powell in June last called at the
County TreasuTer's office and paid his
taxes. When Governor Foraker charg-
ed him with the nonpayment Of them,
Mr.. Powell came to the city, and going
to the Treasurer's Office asked him what
taxes Of his remained unpaid. The
Treasurer looked over the books and
replied that there did not appear to be
any. He afterward found a charge;
the tax certificate had been taken from
the book and was lying in drawer. II
should have been presented to him in
june when he paid his taxes, but was
not; that is the whole matter" Know
ing these facts, Governor Foraker still
goes about wagging bis long ears and

he has since resided. In 18I9 he pur.
chased what is now the old home farm

traits of good character, many positions
of public trust have been given him
He served as Justice of the Peace il

For six years he held the Office Of As
SCISSOR, and for eight years he was pres

votes of an election. His competitor
was John G. Girwig, who also lived in

the same as they had been three years

closer than before, Mr.. Schmachtenber
